      Matrix and XMPP don’t hide metadata (who you’re talking to, when, and how often). This is OK if your users are all on the same private server that you self-host/trust. But in practice most users will be on the Matrix equivalent of Gmail, and you’ll be sending this metadata to the largest server in plaintext for every conversation involving one of those users.

      I also have trouble where iOS “instant” notifications in SimpleX aren’t delivered–hopefully this gets fixed.
